It is impossible
to summarise the Portes du Soleil region in a matter of words. Instead,
discover it by yourself! On the slopes, savour the peace and quiet,
admire the vast expanses of snow all around and take time to savour
the fantastic views of Mont-Blanc. 14 resorts, 400 upland chalets,
207 ski lifts, 288 marked slopes, 243 Km of cross-country skiing
tracks, 7 snowparks and 1082 instructors help you get the most of
this vast territory.
Skiing
Forget about the usual struggle with gloves and all your ski
equipment when you have to show your pass at the chair lifts.
The new Hands Free pass sits safely in your pocket and automatically
lets you onto the ski lifts. No worries and no danger of losing
your pass.
The smart card can be topped up a thousand times -
winter and summer alike - and each time you top up you earn
loyalty points* to win a day's skiing at Les Portes du Soleil.
The card costs 3€ and is advisable for passes of 3 days or
more. It makes life easier for you and helps the environment
since the same pass can be used from one season to the next.
(* except for full-season and concessionary passes).
CHILDREN
AT FORE
Children are given privileged treatment in the ‘snow gardens'
at the heart of the village and on the slopes. Nurseries are
available to take care of the really little ones and specially
designed playgrounds introduce junior skiers to all the joys
of the slopes. The Grand Cry area is a unique itinerary where
young skiers can have fun in a setting based on the theme of
trappers and American Indians. Les Gets pays particular attention
to the needs of children and strives constantly to respect the
quality charter established by the Ski France association.
